Dawn is all too familiar to the post-70s, post-80s, and even post-90s.
You are the "Four Heavenly Kings" and Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok, limelight, has participated in many films, at that time was also the highest among the four kings of the film, enough to show his popularity and influence at that time.
Once the dawn, it can be said that it is the top stream of the entertainment industry, equivalent to today's top stream Xiao Zhan.
Even at that time, the Hong Kong entertainment industry would take this sentence to scare people: "Are you red, red enough to pass the dawn?" "
Dawn came from a wealthy family, his father was an Indonesian overseas Chinese businessman, and later settled in Hong Kong.
From an early age, he was pampered and well-treated, living a young master-like life, with his own nobility. Of course, acting is also high-profile. At that time, when filming on TVB, they all drove sports cars, and they were often late, which made the crew miserable.
Young Dawn is still looking good, gossiping about his girlfriends one by one.
In one sentence:
Jacky Cheung's girlfriend is one, Andy Lau's girlfriend is one after another, Aaron Kwok's girlfriend is one after another, and Dawn's girlfriend is a clump and a clump.
At that time, the most popular Faye Wong, Zhou Haimei, Li Jiaxin, Shu Qi and other goddess-level figures had all had gossip with Dawn.
With the passage of time, the dawn of the present day has plummeted, far less than the other three of the four heavenly kings.
In 2008, Chen Kaige wanted to shoot "Mei Lanfang", when the news came out, many people ran to audition, and Dawn, who had not filmed for a long time, also went.
Dawn audition not only did not have the high profile of the year, but it could even be said to be low.
He walked into Chen Kaige's office with his head bowed, and spoke softly to please, like a newcomer who had just come out of society.
A once-popular king actually walked into the director's office with his head bowed and said, "If you choose me for this play, of course, it is not surprising that you do not choose me, I will act well." After the audition, Dawn found Chen Kaige and asked him to choose his own acting.
It can be seen that dawn is already on the decline.
In 2017, Dawn prepared to transform into a director, which took five years to prepare, but after the release of his debut film "Grab the Red", the box office reputation was unbearable, with a Douban score of 3.6 points, and the box office was even more outrageous, less than 20 million.
The transformation failed, and he continued to act.
In 2018, As a supporting role, Dawn participated in the costume fantasy drama "Will Night", and there was no response.
Some time ago, he went to a township real estate opening ceremony in Hunan to sing. This is certainly not going to go during his popular period.
The generation of kings who were once the youngest and most popular is now reduced to acting that no one watches, and the transformation has failed, running for their livelihood.
This reminds me of one of the highest-scoring horror films he once starred in, "The Homecoming of the Three Changes."
In "Three Changes", Ah Wei's father and son lived a very rich life, after the death of his wife, he took his son to move into a building that was about to be abandoned, and the residents of the building except Yu Hui and his wife had moved out, which was very empty.
The son often saw a little girl dressed in red, and the other party stared at him all the time, very scared. But the father Ah Wei must go to work for the livelihood of the father and son, and can not take him with him, so he told his son to be brave and face it himself.
As a result, within a few days, his son was taken away by the girl in red and disappeared.
If it weren't for the need to make a living, I don't think Ah Wei would have taken his son to live in such a terrible place.
If it weren't for the need to make a living, Ah Wei would have taken the child with him.
I think that if it were not for the sake of livelihood, the dawn with the aura of the king would not be so lowly begging the director to want to shoot.
If it wasn't for the livelihood of the Heavenly King Dawn, he probably wouldn't have gone to a small place to perform.
Perhaps, the former King Dawn will be like many TVB movie stars, running around for their livelihood.
